53% of Women Hide This Fantasy From Their Significant Other

I've always been told that it's healthy to fantasize about things because it helps build imagination and also because it gives a person something to look forward to. But what about fantasizing about something that might not be so great. Is that still okay?

Apparently it is (depending on how not so great the thing is. If you fantasize about doing serious harm to someone- you probably should find someone to talk to). I definitely fantasized about breaking up with my ex. Once I realized I needed to get out of the toxic situation, I fantasized about how it'd go down.

Until now, the only person I've told about the fantasy I had was my husband. I didn't tell anyone else that I'd fantasized about leaving a situation I'd been in for far too long because I thought maybe there was something wrong with me for feeling the way I did.

Actually, there's absolutely nothing wrong with me. I'm just an average woman.

According to a poll by Women's Health, 53% of women fantasize about leaving their partners. On the other hand, 44% of men say they never think about it. Like, not at all.

Oh, and a recent Stanford University study found 69% of divorces are initiated by women. It all makes sense now, doesn't it?
